the sad real city i've listened to many republican senators who are not going vote for chuck hagel come up and talk about how important it is to fill the position. the north koreans detonate nuclear devices this week and raise concerns over the part of the world and beyond. we know what is going on in the middle east in syria and other places. we still have 68,000 plus american soldiers who are literally risking their lives while we meet in the comfort and security of the senate chamber in afghanistan they are risking their lives and we are saying, well, we would like to appoint a secretary of defense. we have to make a political point here today. we have to vote against him today and put off for ten days. we may reconsider again. god for bid something awful occurs. i hope doesn't. there are still good people at the pentagon. i'm sure they'll do a good job. we should have that secretary of defense. one of the most critical appointment in the president's cabinet filled. the notion we have to make a political stand here and stop chuck hagel today to make some political point troubles me.
